Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam Practice Question

Carla provides legal services for real estate closings. A real estate broker, who sends multiple clients to Carla, wants a percentage of Carla's closing fees as compensation. Carla wonders if this arrangement is permitted.

  • It is acceptable if Carla designates the broker as a consultant who is compensated from the legal fees received.

  • It is acceptable if Carla and the broker enter into a valid contract outlining the referral fee.

  • It is not permitted, because lawyers do not share fees with nonlawyers outside of recognized exceptions like payment of staff salaries.

  • It is acceptable if Carla notifies clients that the broker receives part of the closing fees.
